Yep. Its user experience is straight from the 90s. Can't edit your messages to fix typos, can't do pleasant and friendly formatting with preview, and don't even get me started on controls over notifications.
It's a mailing list.. you want it to be a forum, but that's not the point or what it is meant to be.
Some of us prefer mailing lists and interacting over email in our preferred client over having to go to various websites and deal with their varying user interfaces.
Except absolutely awful, it's worse than the standard mailman ML and that's saying something.

One of the issues being google groups looks a lot like a forum (dedicated web UI, starring, replies to threads, etc…) without any of the good points of a forum.
Basically, for most people google groups is the lowest common denominator of a forum and a mailing list, making it unmitigated garbage.
